Neat & Tangled June Release & Giveaways - Day 1

Hey everyone! It's release week at Neat & Tangled, and we're kicking things off with a new set from Danielle called Bloom.

I am in love with this set. It's got a couple handlettered sentiments and also some great florals.

For my card today I went with a neutral, monochromatic color scheme. I stamped the main floral image on both ends of my cardstock (using the MISTI so it's perfectly centered/evenly spaced) to frame the sentiment and colored it with Copics. I mostly used cool grays, but added a big of light pink to the little circles to soften it up a bit. I also went around the sentiment with the C1 marker. it's hard to see it in the photos, but I think it makes the sentiment pop a little more. A black and white print for the base finished things off.

Those flowers are so pretty aren't they? You definitely want to swing over to the N&T blog to see what the full set looks like and to enter to win this set as Danielle is giving one away to a lucky commenter.

I have several items in the release this month and I'll be picking some winners too. I'm going to mix things up a bit, and I'll be picking winners from comments both here and on Instagram. So leave a comment here and each day this week, and then head over to IG (@mprantner) for an extra chance. I'll announce the winners on Friday. See you back here tomorrow!

Your monochromatic card is stunning, Miriam! How I adore the sentiments! This set would be perfect for making cards for my niece as she begins to explore the 'big world' opening up before her. Thank you for creating and sharing beauty with us today!~carol

This is so lovely, MP! I thought you watercolored it, so cool to see you used Copics. This would be awesome to have a bunch stamped and ready to color for so many occasions. If, I was that organized, of course :).
